CD poster


This is an update of our poster is coming along. We have used the same background as the CD cover so that there is a recognisable link between the two for the audience. For this however we have more of a long shot and have included a swing.
We have produced almost all the detail on photoshop except the wooden seat of the swing and the rope. We began by using various layers for each piece of artwork. We filled in the background with blue to use as the sky. We then created the tree, grass, flowers and robin by using various Adobe photoshop tools. To give it the fairytale theme we were after, using photoshop, we placed leaves and butterflies up and around the rope of the swing. We feel that this also relates to the bubbly image of Kate Nash and resembles her CD covers in a way as she always uses cartoon drawings. For her album cover she had a real image of her placed into a drawing of a brick house and this is what we too have done in our CD cover and poster. In the poster we have her sittingon the swing in a 50's style polka dot dress. However, we are planning on taking another photo of Claudia wearing a red polka dot dress as the colour would connotate the feeling of love. It would also go well with the red of the flowers and robin. We also want her to have her legs down instead of crossed and her arms held put as if she was holding the ropes. When this is done, using photoshop we can adjust it to make it look as though Claudia and the swing are one image. This will will up the large gaps we have at the moment aswell. We have put reviews of the album to encourage people to buy it and informed them of the release date.
